Hi, ok, your mail arrived while I wrote my last one and I only saw it after sending.
I am upgrading to 2.9.2+ds-1~bpo11+1 now -- one machine is done, the others will follow (the messages in the 'Telegram' channel confusingly also appear in the up-to-date iOS app so I will have to update all clients). I think I will see tomorrow or in the next couple of days if I still get these messages. Or faster -- the message box appeared again, maybe it is set every couple of minutes? Wasn't there a similar problem with firefox where a solution was worked out to follow upstream more closely? Thank you so far!
